AthletiCo has renewed its partnership with the Chicago Blackhawks to become the Official Provider of Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy to the team.

As a partner of the Blackhawks since 2002, AthletiCo will continue to support the team’s medical staff. Additionally, AthletiCo will provide stretching at the team’s annual Training Camp Festival and athletic training coverage at the Chicago Blackhawks Youth Hockey Camps and Holiday Hockey Tournament.

“We are proud to have an industry leader such as AthletiCo as the Official Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy Provider for the Chicago Blackhawks,” says Dave Knickerbocker, Senior Executive Director, Marketing and Business Development for the Blackhawks. “They have been tremendous partners for years and are a great help to the Chicago Blackhawks both on and off the ice.”

New elements of the Blackhawks’ partnership include sponsorship of various in-game activities. In addition, AthletiCo, in conjunction with the Chicago Blackhawks, the Amateur Hockey Association of Illinois (AHAI), and the Midwest Center for Concussion Care, recently launched the A Step aHead initiative to combat concussions in young hockey players.
